California Report

Sorry for my absence but Wendy and I have been working on making housing affordable in California and haven’t finished yet. Alex and Liz are ensconced at University of California, Irvine and very much enjoying it. We have heard party stories and occasional class stories. I was were surprised to learn that students drink alcoholic beverages in college. Alex is majoring in the humanities, while Liz is still undecided but is considering International Studies and Anthropology. Midterms are upon them already. Not much time in a ten week quarter. The girls just turned 18 so they don’t have to ask us if they can join the Army.

The house is very quiet without them; however, Yellen Helen is filling the void. She is trying to make the jump from age 11 to age 18 in one swell foop. On the other end of the spectrum my mom will be 91 in December and is going strong. With the girls living at college, there are guestrooms available at here Villa Gorilla (Hint).

We are all sorry we missed the wedding and seeing all of you. How about some more wedding pictures? Did the father of the bride do his stand up routine?

No, fortunately for all the father of the bride did not do his stand up schtick. He was too busy protecting his wallet from marauding bands of service providers. Jim, with three daughters who may someday decide to marry, you might consider buying wedding insurance or looking into offshore asset protection.

Billy, just wait, the father's roll as a fashion cop is a thankless job. You are ganged up upon and accused of being hopelessly out of touch.
